From Harvard to London, Hollywood’s finest have been keeping busy — and looking fabulous.

Oprah Winfrey donned a cap and gown on Thursday as she took to the stage at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass. The television queen received an honorary Doctor of Laws and later gave a commencement speech to the Class of 2013.

“Oh my goodness. I’m at HAAAARVARD! Not too many girls from rural Mississippi have made it all the way here to Cambridge . . . I consider today to be a defining milestone,” Winfrey said in her speech. [via USA Today]
